Burp Suite, the leading toolkit for web application security testing

Senior Java Software Developer

An opportunity to help shape the future of a successful and growing
development team, and work with other outstanding individuals.

Who we are?

We are a small, dynamic, software company that delivers the world’s
most widely-used software for web security testing.

We are extremely innovative, and over the past decade we have
continually pushed the boundaries
of what can be achieved using web security tools.

We are passionate about quality in everything that we do, and always
strive to improve and refine our practices as developers.

What will you be doing?

We have a very ambitious roadmap for the future of our software. As a senior member of our development team you will:

Help architect and implement new editions of our product.

Get to grips with the latest web technologies and how these are
being used in practice.

Solve complex and unusual problems in innovative ways.

Work closely with other high achievers on a highly collaborative
team.

Help drive quality and excellence into everything that we do.

Why join PortSwigger?

We like to have fun (why else would we make a product called Burp?)
while thinking hard about conceptually complex problems. If you are
someome who thrives on difficult challenges and gets a kick out of
solving them, then this is the job for you.

We only hire exceptional people – and as a result deliver software
that never fails to impress our users.

We are genuinely Agile: we employ rigorous TDD;
we pair-program on a daily basis; we work off a single code branch that
is always release-ready; we have regular team retrospectives and knowledge-sharing sessions.

We have rapid release cycles with updated versions of our software
automatically pushed to our users, so you will quickly see your code
deployed to a huge global audience.

We offer a healthy, high-tech working environment. All developers
work on the latest Mac Pros, with dual monitors, sitting-standing desks,
and (if they are so inclined) walking treadmills.

Eligibility

A minimum of
five years' experience working in software development. (This is
a minimum only, and we welcome candidates with any length of
experience beyond this.)

Essential attributes:

Exceptional academic background, or
commensurate track record in employment to demonstrate technical
abilities.
